National Review "According to an internal U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services memo going the rounds of Capitol Hill and obtained by National Review, the agency is considering ways in which it could enact “meaningful immigration reform absent legislative action” — that is, without the consent of the American  people through a vote in Congress."

USCIS Draft Memo Leaked Discussing Ways to ByPass Congress on Amnesty "The National Review article claims that the USCIS is thinking about using “Deferred Action”. The Definition of Deferred Action according to the USCIS is:"
“an exercise of prosecutorial discretion not to pursue removal from the U.S. of a particular individual for a specific period of time.”
